A National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship and Institute of Medicine National Cancer Policy Forum Workshop,The Lance Armstrong Foundation and The National Cancer Institute,National Academy of Sciences

One of the key recommendations of the joint IOM and NRC book, From Cancer Patient to Cancer Survivor: Lost in Transition , is that patients completing their primary treatment for cancer be given a summary of their treatment and a comprehensive plan for follow-up. This book answers practical questions about how this ‘Survivorship Care Plan’, including what exactly it should contain, who will be responsible for creating and discussing it, implementation strategies, and anticipated barriers and challenges.
